Guys,
This is the Mad Drummer, who I talked about in this thread:
http://www.dmdrummer.com/index.php?topic=403.0He definitely got me thinking about stage presence.. think about it.. Do you say "Hey we're playing next weekend.. come listen to us??"
I've been watching a lot of great drummers on youtube. A few of my favs for showmanship/presence are as follows:
Dave Grohl
Shannon Larkin? (Godsmack)
Bonzo
Keith Moon
Tommy Lee
I'm not so much about the stick flips (only cool if you don't F up the beat), but really getting into the music and fueling the crowd with a few moves.
Anyone want to comment on stage presence, or add to the list? I know this is only the tip of the iceberg..
